What is the Sitter to Sitter program?

Sometimes emergencies or unexpected situations come up where a sitter can no longer provide care for their Rover dog. The Sitter to Sitter program was created for sitters who are willing to step up and take a dog without a Meet & Greet in these situations. Sitters in this program have the opportunity to earn cash bonuses, swag bags, and repeat clients!

How Sitter to Sitter works

If a pet owner in your area needs a different sitter to care for their dog, we’ll send you a message through their Rover account. We’ll state that it’s a Sitter to Sitter request and explain why the dog needs a new sitter.

You can accept or decline the booking.

If the stay’s booked and you complete the booking, you’ll be awarded a $50 bonus on top of your normal rate--plus we’ll send you a swag bag as an extra thank you.

You offer overnight services--dog boarding and/or house sitting.
